Full Description of event/sighting:
I was about 4 years old, were at our cabin in the Adirondacks
and several neighbours were visiting us as we just arrived for
our summer vacation.
As I was young I was put to bed earlier but was listening to the
adults talking in the living room. We had no electricity or
running water, so when I wanted to go to the toilet, which was an
outhouse in the corner of the shedl my father escorted me to the
shed and went back inside the cabin door to get away from the
mosquitoes where he could still see the shed.
While in the outhouse every minute or so I could hear a whirring
from far away getting nearer then going away. When I ran back
inside the cabin and told my father he said it was probably just
an owl or other creature.
A few minutes later all the adults were outside the back door as
someone had gone to the outhouse and saw this disc-shaped
object, which seemed to be slightly lit up and making a whirring
sound, coming into view from the south, passing almost overhead
and disappearing around Mount Baker.
I sneaked out and actually saw one, (one passed every minute or
so) before I got caught and was sent back in. We had an old
battery radio (tube) and when listening to the local news the
next day we heard several reports of the same sighting from the
village.
